11 But the hawk[a] and the hedgehog[b] shall possess it;
    the owl[c] and the raven shall live in it.
He shall stretch the line of confusion over it,
    and the plummet of chaos over[d] its nobles.
12 They shall name it No Kingdom There,
    and all its princes shall be nothing.
13 Thorns shall grow over its strongholds,
    nettles and thistles in its fortresses.
It shall be the haunt of jackals,
    an abode for ostriches.
